Gluten Free in Disneyland and California Adventure

Gluten Free in Disneyland and California Adventure

You might have heard by now that we just got back from a trip where we went to Disneyland, Disney’s California Adventure, and also spent some time in Downtown Disney. If you are looking for some gluten-free recommendations, you are in luck! Disneyland is known for making sure everyone can enjoy the magic, and that is also true when it comes to different dietary needs. There are plenty of gluten-free options scattered throughout the parks and Downtown Disney, so you don’t have to worry about missing out on delicious food while you’re having fun! I’ve put together a review of the gluten-free spots that we visited when we were there to take some of the planning and research off of your own plate. Let's dive in and discover some delicious gluten-free finds that’ll make your Disney experience even more special! Happy reading!

Gluten Free in Disneyland

Galactic Grill - We had lunch here on our first day in Disneyland and it was really what we picked because I could tell from mobile ordering that they had gluten-free options and I was starving so I didn’t put much thought into it. I got the Cheeseburger and it had lettuce and cheese on it with a gluten-free bun. The bun was a little weird and not like any gluten-free bun that I have ever had in Disney World but it was okay. I ate it but I probably would have tried something else if we went back there. I also got a side of fries and those were really good! I would rate it a 6/10 overall! I also didn't get a photo but I will share the menu below for you guys to look at it.

Gluten Free in California Adventure

Flo’s V8 Cafe - We ate lunch here one day when we spent the morning in Disney’s California Adventure. It was really cool because we chose a seat outside and got to watch the Radiator Springs Racers ride go by which I really liked! They had mobile ordering which makes ordering gluten-free options just a little bit easier. I got “Ramones Low and Slow Club” which was yummy and had turkey breast, bacon, avocado-bacon mayo, lettuce and tomato on it with a side of steak fries which were also good! Overall, I would rate this meal a 9/10, only because I think it could have used just a little bit more of the sauce that it came with!

Mendocino Terrace Wine Tasting - This doesn’t need to be under “gluten-free” by any means but we frequented this spot in the few days that we were in the parks. They had a huge wine selection and they also had beer and cider options as well. I didn’t even know they had a cheese plate until I was writing this blog post so I feel like we missed out. But I love wine so this was my go-to choice for a drink in the park! I liked the Martin Ray Pino Noir, but also tried the Craftwell Peach Mojito one day and that was really good and refreshing. Dustin tried the Mango Mule and said that was good as well. They really had something for everyone here!

Pym Test Kitchen - First of all, walking into this restaurant is just overall a really cool experience. If you look up when you’re in here, you see a machine with pretzels going in one size and coming out either smaller or larger which a fun interactive touch they added. But like the other spots we tried, they had a mobile ordering option which was helpful. I got the Reactor Melt which was garlic pesto toasted sourdough that had mozzarella, basil and tomato on it and it came with potato bites. I thought the food was pretty good and I appreciated the fun touch with the bread, usually they leave that off when it comes to allergy friendly food. I would rate the meal a 7/10!

Gluten Free in Downtown Disney

Centrico - We landed at LAX, went straight to our hotel to drop the car off, walked to Downtown Disney and ended up here with a margarita in hand just in time for lunch. We had a really early flight with no breakfast so we were pretty hungry. We started with the chips, guacamole and salsa which was so different but so good. It was house made salsa and delicious. Then for our main meals, Dustin got the quesabirrias which was lamb barria, cheese, guacsalsa and red onion on a corn tortilla and it was SO yummy! It was gluten free so I got to try it and YUM! For my main meal I got the Conchinita Pibil tacos which had Guerrero-style pork, a black bean puree, pickled onions, salsa on corn tortillas which were also very very good and gluten-free! The meals were so good, I would rate them a 9/10 and it would have been a 10/10 if there weren’t SO many pickled onions on my tacos, I had to take soooo many off!

Naples Ristorante e Bar - Eating gluten-free at Naples Ristorante e Bar in Downtown Disney was actually a pleasant surprise and we ended up eating there two times while we were in the area! The menu had marked gluten-free options that were available which was nice, mostly pasta options and then salads. But it was nice that there were a few different things to choose from. I felt comfortable eating here but just to note, they don’t have a dedicated area for cooking so definitely eat here knowing that risk. On the other hand of regular food, Dustin also loved his food and it was a great spot to have some Italian food after a ton of walking! Plus, the location right in Downtown Disney made it super convenient to be able to walk to after the park!

I wanted to make sure there was a place where you guys could find just the gluten free reviews that I did while we were in Disney just to make it a little bit easier. If we visit in the future and try new spots I will most likely just add on to this blog post to have it all in one area. But I am curious, have you ever been to Disneyland and California Adventure? What was your favorite part or something you hands down recommend doing? If you have any questions at all you can comment below or email me at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Spend a Day Exploring Dornoch Scotland with Viator

Hi Friends!

One of the stops on our cruise was a day trip to Dornoch, Scotland! We booked a tour that hit a lot of the stops that we were wanting to check off of our list that had a good mix of history, nature stops, and also local experiences. I am going to share all of the details of the day from exploring the Dunrobin Castle and gardens to exploring the small town of Dornoch with some gluten free stops along the way! There really was something for everyone in our group on this tour that we did and we loved the touches of Harry Potter here and there as well!

There were 6 planned stops on the tour that we booked but we has such an amazing tour guide and honestly our group was great too that we got to add a few stops along the way! I will share which stops were on the planned tour and which stops we got to add in as I talk about them below!

Black Rock Gorge - {unplanned} This spot was the first on our tour and it was a Harry Potter filming location! It is a short scenic walk to get to and the photos seriously don’t do it justice- it was so pretty in person! I believe that this filming location is from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire when he is in the dragon portion of the competition! Overall, a very pretty stop that we were happy to add to the day!

Struie Hill - {planned} This is known as the Million Dollar viewpoint that looks over the Dornoch Firth. We stopped here for a few photos before we top here for photos for about 10 minutes before heading to the next stop!

Dornoch Cathedral - {planned} - Dornoch cathedral is in the middle of this cute town that we stopped in and it was made famous by the wedding of Madonna to Guy Ritchie which was a cool fun fact! We walked by it but didn’t go in during the tour!

milk and honey Dornoch Scotland gluten free review

Milk + Honey - We stopped into this place for lunch on the way when we were in the town of Dornoch and we were pleased with the food that we got! It was a little cafe and I got the yummiest tuna sandwich with cucumber and a side salad! We also got lattes and pie for dessert and it was SO SO GOOD! All of my food was gluten-free and they were very knowledgable of my allergy which was great!

Dornoch Jail & Dornoch Bookstore - {planned} These were also stops that we made while we were in the town of Dornoch and the Dornoch Jail was actually turned into the cutest store with lots too look at! It was fun to see how the jail cells were turned into different sections of things to shop! The Dornoch Bookshop was another fun stop to just browse through the hundreds of books that they had to look through!

Dunrobin Castle and Gardens - {planned} This castle was such a cool stop, we has so much fun exploring the Dunrobin Castle and the gardens that surrounded it. A little backstory, the Dunrobin Castle is the most northerly of Scotland's large castles and has 189 rooms. Dunrobin Castle is also one of Britain's oldest continuously inhabited houses dating back to the early 1300s, home to the Earls and later, the Dukes of Sutherland. The castle is in a magnificent setting with amazing gardens. On your visit you will witness an amazing falconry display in the delightful castle gardens. These birds of prey will delight you. Then visit the castle museum before touring the furnished castle itself. The Castle, which resembles a French chateâu with its towering conical spires, has seen the architectural influences of Sir Charles Barry, who designed London’s Houses of Parliament, and Scotland’s own Sir Robert Lorimer. It was so cool and we learned a lot when we were visiting here!

The Tea Room - This was the little cafe that was at the entrance of the Dunrobin Castle but it was really yummy! They had a ton of things that were marked gluten-free. I ordered a cup of soup to go and it was so good! But one thing to note, you can’t take food on the tour so I should have had the soup while I was sitting there- just keep that in mind! But it was really good and definitely recommend it! My parents and Dustin had pastries that weren’t gluten free but they liked them and the lattes that we all got were also good!

Mermaid of the North - {unplanned} - This was another stop that our tour guide stopped at on the way back to the ship! It is a statue that sits on a rock on the shore of the Seaboard Village of Balintore called Mermaid of the North. The sculpture was inspired by local folklore and she was designed as part of a Sculpture Park celebrating local heritage, Folklore, Faith, Fortitude, Fishing & Four Corners of the World. I didn’t have this stop on my list but it was cool to stop and learn a little but more about it when we had time!

Highland Cows - {unplanned} - At the very end of the day we still had some time before we needed to be back on the ship so we took the long way back and tried to find some Highland Cows at a local farm. Our guide, Emma, was so nice and took us to a few farm areas before we found some! They were way out in the field but that was perfect and we got to check seeing Highland Cows off our Scotland bucket list!

If you are anything like us, you will really leave the town of Dornoch and Dunrobin Castle with fun memories of their history, the stunning landscapes, and the charm of it all. Whether you're admiring the views from the castle grounds or enjoying a gluten-free meal at one of the local cafes, it’s clear that this corner of Scotland offers something special for every traveler! Let me know if you eat at any of these spots! If you have any questions you can comment below or as always you can send me an email at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Where to Eat, Stay and Play Around Iceland

Hi Friends!

Iceland was the first stop in our 14 day adventure last summer and it’s just about the last blog post that I have on the docket to write! The first thing to note about Iceland was that it went NOWHERE near what we originally had planned itinerary wise. Instead of being in Iceland for 4, almost 5 days- we spent two of those days in the Minneapolis airport (insert nervous sweating emoji)… ANYWAYS, once we finally got there we had a lot of ground to cover in less time than we had planned but we really tried to make the best of it! I should also note that the mishaps and plans continued to get changed for pretty much the entirety of the trip but I wanted to share the itinerary and things we did do and our experiences anyway! So buckle in while I tell you the ADVENTURE we went on while we were exploring Iceland in June!

A Few Things to Have on Hand!

  1. Rain Jacket

  2. Umbrella

  3. Backpack for purchases

  4. Camera or Phone for pictures

  5. LAYERS! I was so thankful that I had a rain jacket, a sweatshirt and a t-shirt on because I shed and added layers all day long!

Day One in Iceland

When we arrived in Iceland, my parents picked us up at the airport and then we pretty much immediately started driving to go see all of the sights in the The Golden Circle. This is a very popular touristy route that you can take in southern Iceland that covers about 300 km/180 miles and you can loop from Reykjavík into the southern uplands and then back. With our shortened time we didn’t get to all of them but I will list the popular ones below with some info on the stop!

  1. Þingvellir National Park: A site of historical, cultural, and geological significance, Þingvellir was the location of Iceland's ancient parliament and lies in a rift valley marking the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

  2. Gullfoss Waterfall: Known as the "Golden Falls," this two-tiered waterfall on the Hvítá river cascades into a deep crevice, creating a stunning display of natural beauty.

  3. Geysir Geothermal Area: Home to the famous Geysir and its active neighbor Strokkur, which erupts every 5–10 minutes, this geothermal area showcases Iceland's geothermal activity.

  4. Kerið Volcanic Crater: A volcanic crater lake located in the Grímsnes area, Kerið is known for its visually recognizable caldera and aquamarine-colored water.

  5. Faxi Waterfall (Vatnsleysufoss): Situated on the Tungufljót river, Faxi is a picturesque waterfall known for its salmon-filled waters and a popular spot for fishing.

If you are short on time, adding a few or all of these destinations to your list is an easy way to see many things in a shorter amount of time. We got to see so many different areas of Iceland along The Golden Circle route.

At the end of this day we stayed in a little two bedroom cabin in Þingvellir National Park. I will link the cabin that we stayed in here, we paid $220 for the night but it was a good location and you could look out onto Þingvallavatn lake which is seriously stunning. We booked this cabin through Airbnb, it was small but had anything we really could have needed. I wouldn’t plan on making a five course meal but we were able to make dinner and breakfast here without any problems.

Day Two in Iceland

Coffee shop in Penninn - We went in to browse the bookstore and grabbed a coffee while we were in there. The bookstore was so cute and had so many options book wise. I know it was the middle of June when we were there but Dustin and I both got a pumpkin spiced latte and it really just hit the spot! It was so good, not too sweet, so good!

Hallgrímskirkja - This is also known as the Church of Hallgrímur and was high on our to-do list when we were in Reykjavik! Its has a really cool modern design which we learned is inspired by Iceland's volcanic landscapes! It is super tall and it stands tall as one of the city's most famous landmarks. When we were there we also walked along Rainbow Road.

Rainbow Road - This is a really cool street with colorful crosswalks that symbolize the city's spirit of inclusivity and love. Both were high on our must see lists and they were right next to each other, making for an easy stop! There were also a lot of shops to wander around in and out of along this road which we took advantage of! We liked this bookstore called Bókabúðin Bergstaðastræti and this record shop called Geisladiskabúð Valda.

Krua Thai Restaurant - We were visiting Rainbow Road and the iconic Hallgrímskirkja church right around lunch time and we were so happy to stumble into the yummiest food we had in Iceland! They had a lot of gluten free options and the waiter was very knowledgeable of my gluten allergy. I honestly think that our waiter was the owner as well but nonetheless, knowledgeable! I decided to get the Pad Thai and I added chicken, it was SO good! We were also able to get whatever spice level that we wanted. Dustin got the chicken Kuayda Pad with rice and it was like a red curry. It was also able to be made gluten free! The portions were huge and I ended up taking about half of mine to go for later, side note, it reheated well!

We stayed at a farmhouse that was right next to a lighthouse and the beach but since we stayed there the house was taken off of Airbnb, but if we were going to do it all again, we probably would have stayed in Reykjavik! We only stayed where we did to be closer to The Blue Lagoon but that wasn’t necessary after all and staying near the port where we got on our ship would have been a good idea as well!

Day Three in Iceland

The Blue Lagoon - We were supposed to wake up early on this morning and go to The Blue Lagoon for our 8:30am slot but while we were on our way there from the airbnb we were told that there was no way to get to The Blue Lagoon due to volcano activity that was happening on the road. We were so sad but obviously would rather be safe than put ourselves in danger so we didn’t get to see The Blue Lagoon. The staff was very helpful and offered to move our reservation date but with it being our last day there they refunded our tickets. If you’re going I would absolutely recommend trying to visit The Blue Lagoon. Possibly plan to do this early in your trip just in case there needs to be adjustments to your reservation for any reason. One tip we did hear when we were on our cruise but not before the trip was to not let your hair go into The Blue Lagoon because it makes it feel gross even after washing it.

FlyOver Iceland - When we found out that we weren’t going to be able to go to The Blue Lagoon we pivoted, went to lunch at Rost and then decided to do the FlyOver Iceland experience in Reykjavik which was pretty cool. FlyOver Iceland is sort of like Soarin’ at Epcot for those of you who have done that! It suspends you in the air, giving you the feeling of flight while watching a film that takes you on a journey across Iceland while also using special effects like wind, scents and mist which is just a very cool interactive experience. It was about $40 a person for the whole tour and movie, I think it was really cool to watch and see what we missed on our trip.

Experience Iceland coffee
Experience Iceland

Rost Reykjavik - This was a coffee shop that was closer to the cruise port but we stopped here for breakfast before we got onto our ship! To eat I got the hot ham and cheese on gluten free bread, it was good! Dustin got one of their specials that was specific to that day but it was out of his comfort zone and he still loved it. To drink I got the one of their special lattes that was being advertised on the chalk board but it had like caramel popcorn on top and was so good! It was definitely more of a sweet treat rather than a regular coffee situation! Dustin just had a latte and liked that as well!

Driving in Iceland

With all that we wanted to do and see in a short amount of time, we opted to rent a car and drive around Iceland on our visit. At first we were hesitant of what it would be like driving in Iceland as a tourist but after doing it, it was absolutely the right choice for us. The roads were well-maintained, there were clear signs for directions and really there wasn’t too much traffic. We got to see lots of stunning views of volcanic mountains, geysers, glaciers, and waterfalls, there was so much scenery to take in literally around every turn. There were some roads that were a little more narrow or were gravel, especially in more remote areas so I would definitely recommend to always drive carefully, be alert and also to be prepared for varying weather conditions. But overall, driving in Iceland was relatively easy, and the freedom to stop whenever you want to take in the different views of the island was one of the best parts! Lastly, the locals are friendly and helpful, so if you need any assistance, don't hesitate to ask. This might absolutely be different for you depending on when you are visiting but for 4 days it was about $475 for our rental car!

Experience Iceland
Experience Iceland

After three fun filled days exploring Iceland, we got to see and experience so many things. We loved seeing the landscapes of The Golden Circle and adventure of missing being able to relax in The Blue Lagoon. Iceland was such a huge destination to check off of our bucket lists and we definitely recommend visiting! Whether you're wanting to see the stunning waterfalls, walking through volcanic craters, or trying Icelandic meals, you will make so many memories on the trip! As always, if you have any questions at all, please comment below or send me an email at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will get back to you asap!

Disneyland and California Adventure: Where to Eat, Stay and Play

Disneyland and California Adventure: Where to Eat, Stay and Play

Discover the Best Eats, Stays, and Plays at Disneyland and California Adventure - All in One Guide!

We just got back a couple of weeks ago from a long weekend at Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure, and we seriously had a blast! It’s one of those places that feels like magic, even as an adult and we got to spend a few days hopping between the two parks, soaking up the rides, food, and all the little details that make it such a special place! We went to both parks back in 2017 and we had fun but there was something about being there a little bit longer that let us relax and do the parks at a slower pace which was so nice and I think made our experience just better overall! I really think that anyone can enjoy these parks whether you're a thrill-seeker or just want to enjoy the atmosphere, there is so much to do and see!

Where We Stayed

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Anaheim by IHG and it was pretty perfect for us for the trip we were on. It was clean, they had friendly staff, very close to the parks and close to Target as well. We liked that there was a fridge and a microwave for snacks so we didn’t have to eat out for every meal. There was a pool and a hot tub, note that the hot tub was SO HOT, so just be careful! There was also a splash pad and a snack bar for guests. There wasn’t complementary breakfast but they did have breakfast buffet available for purchase. Like I said it was close to Disneyland, about a 15 minute walk and then about a 3 minute drive to Target. The only downside was we weren’t aware of the daily parking fee, which was our fault but just so you aren’t surprised by it, there was about a $30 per day parking fee that they charged. Overall, we would definitely stay again!

ARE FAST PASSES WORTH IT?

Discover the Best Eats, Stays, and Plays at Disneyland and California Adventure - All in One Guide!

The Lightning Lane option at Disneyland and California Adventure can be a real game-changer, but it had its pros and cons. On the plus side, it let us skip the lines for some of the busier rides at the park which saved us time to get to more things there. I liked that you were able to purchase the Lightning Lane pass, choose the ride and as soon as you scanned into the ride time you could choose your next pass. We only got the Lightning Lane Passes one of the days that we were there and we got them for California Adventure. For us, it was especially worth it for high-demand rides like The Incredicoaster and Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT, where wait times were a little bit higher than others. However, the downside is the cost and then the fact that you can only use them in one park even if you have a park hopper option on your ticket. There is an additional fee on top of your regular park tickets, the cost was $32 per person and that added up quickly and we are only two people. Another con is that the Lightning Lane isn’t available for every ride, so we still waited in line to ride some of the other rides. If you’re someone who doesn’t mind a little waiting or wants to save some money, it might not be as necessary, but for those looking to maximize their park time, it’s definitely convenient. Like I said we only used it one of the three days we were there and we still got to ride everything that we wanted to so take that into consideration when you are choose whether or not you want to add the Lightning Lane Passes to your day!

Like I mentioned before, we had been there before but getting to spend a little bit more time there made it such a fun weekend! Between the nostalgia of Disneyland and all of the new and exciting rides at California Adventure, it was the perfect mix of fun, adventure, and relaxation. Honestly, I can’t wait to go back and explore even more—I can definitely see us trying to visit Disneyland more often! Have you ever been to Disneyland and California Adventure?

Spend a Day in Malmo, Sweden

Hi Friends!

As I mentioned before, when we got off of our cruise we had 3 days in Copenhagen and Sweden and we spent one of those days exploring near our hotel in Malmo, Sweden! We didn’t have a whole lot on our list of what we wanted to see so we just let the day take us where it went. Even without a plan we had a lot of fun eating yummy food, exploring a castle and wandering the streets of Malmo!

Raddison Blu Hotel, Malmo

I touched on where we stayed in the blog post called Spend Two Days in Copenhagen, Denmark but I will share about the hotel here as well! After the cruise, we stayed three days in Malmo, Sweden because it was a lot cheaper than staying in Copenhagen but it allowed us to explore parts of Sweden and parts of Denmark while costing a little bit less. It was really nice because we were a quick train ride from anywhere we wanted to go and we didn’t feel like we were missing out on anything by staying in Malmo! We stayed at Raddison Blu Hotel, Malmo and it was such a nice spot to stay and the location couldn’t have been better! It was nice and clean, the staff was super friendly, they had air conditioning in our rooms, comfortable beds, tea and coffee in the room and the rooms were huge!

 
 

Breakfast and Coffee

Nybergs - We stopped in here to get coffee actually a couple of times! We liked stopping in here to grab a coffee after getting off the train before going back to the hotel because it was on the walk from the train station to the hotel. We also got breakfast here once as well and it was pretty good! I got scrambled eggs and bacon. They also had surprisingly quite a few gluten free pastries to choose from as well. I had an almond type cookie and also like a moon pie thing as well and both were good! They also had wifi which was nice to have when we needed it. Even if you don’t stop for coffee, it is a great place to stop and to check on missed messages!

Information on Malmo Museum!

Malmohus Castle - The Malmohus Castle is the oldest surviving Renaissance castle. We spend about an hour wandering around the castle and then we spend about 30ish minutes in the science museum portion of the castle which was (in my opinion) really cool! The castle was built between 1526 and 1539 and is the oldest preserved Renaissance castle in the Nordic region, inside there was a ton to look at from history to fashion to animals. There was so much inside! It cost Dustin and I about $18 to visit both sides of the museum. They also had the cutest gift shop, I seriously kick myself for not getting anything from there, I loved the things they had!

Lunch

MAX - We stopped here pretty much as soon as we checked into our hotel and I would say it is like their McDonalds. But here they had gluten free options and that was SO exciting! I had a bacon cheeseburger and a side of fries but I got the cheese fries that had onion and jalapeños on top. All of it was really good and we were thankful to have a quick meal to eat and we would definitely eat here again.

Stortorget Historic Market Square - After we went to the museum and had lunch it was raining pretty hard but we still wanted to explore the area. We found ourselves wandering around Stortorget Historic Market Square and there were a ton of people just hanging out, having lunch and lounging. It was really pretty and had some cool historic spots as well if you are wanting to check some that kind of thing out!

Dinner Ideas

Sabaidee Thai Trianglen - This was another place that we ordered dinner to the hotel when we were in Malmo and it was SO freakin good! Before this trip I have had curry but this Thai place had a red curry that in the most dramatic way possible, changed my life haha! It was so good and I wish I could find a place here in Florida that properly replicated the curry that we had. We also had pad Thai in our order which was really good but it had chilis on top of it that I didn’t see and I put about four of them in my mouth at one time and I’m not sure I have been the same since, lol it was SO spicy! I’m sure if I would have ordered it without the chilis it would have been just as good! We defiantly recommend to order from this spot, just be careful with the spice levels of things if that isn’t something you enjoy!

Explore local Swedish food in Malmö's restaurants, offering a variety of culinary delights.

Davidshall Pizzeria - We ordered this pizza one night after a long day of exploring and it didn’t disappoint! It was really yummy, the crust was shockingly good. You gluten free friends know that crust isn’t the thing we get excited about when it comes to pretty much anything haha but it was really good! I got the Margherita Pizza and it was so good, would absolutely get it again if I was given the chance! My parents got a non gluten free Hawaiian type of pizza and they liked it as well! We can’t remember what Dustin had but he said it whatever it was he liked it! It was nice to have many options to order in after long exploring days, we ordered in dinner all of the nights that we were in Malmo, actually!

After the cruise was over we were happy to have a day where we just sort of strolled around and didn’t have a strict plan. Malmo was cute and unexpected, plus it was really cool to see where Dustin travels for work a few times a year! He got to show us around which I loved! Have you been to Malmo or any other part of Sweden? I honestly never really had Sweden on my radar until recently but I’m glad to have spent some time there!

Four Outfit Ideas for Epcot

Four Outfit Ideas for Epcot

I was so excited to do another round of outfit ideas for Epcot, I had so many ideas and I can’t wait for you to check these out. I think I have mentioned this before but I would say that Epcot is probably the park that we spend the most time in since we became pass holders. It’s so easy to get into like the parking portion! You can do rides or you can really just hang out which plenty of spots to do that and it is a pretty chill park overall. Usually when I go to Epcot I reach for something to wear that is cute but I can also go for the comfy route, it doesn’t really matter because we usually don’t spend the whole day there so comfort isn’t the most important. But there are so many ideas to choose from, Ratatouille, Figment, Finding Nemo, Frozen, The Three Caballeros, so many princesses, so many options. As always, these outfit ideas are based around comfort and these outfits are going to make sure you have a fun day at the park while staying comfortable and still feeling cute with your outfit choice!

You guys can click each picture below to shop these park looks!

I hope you like all of these outfit options or at least find one that fits your style for going to the park. I am still having so much fun putting these together and it also gives me a refresher on outfits to wear when I am going to the park as well! What is your favorite ride at Epcot?! Mine is hands down Guardians of the Galaxy but before that was there I loved Test Track and Soarin’ will always be a favorite of mine! If you have any questions, you can ask them below or if you are more comfortable you can email me at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will get back to you ASAP with an answer!

Daytrip to Helsingor, Denmark from Malmo, Sweden

Hi Friends!

As I mentioned before, when we got off of our cruise we had 3 days in Copenhagen and Sweden and we spent one of those days and took about an hour train ride to Helsingor, Denmark! We initially went so that we could explore Kronborg Castle which is the famous setting for Shakespear’s play, Hamlet. We were so happy that we added this to our list of things to do because we went for the castle and ended up seeing really cool views on the train, cute shopping in the town next to the castle and had a really yummy lunch as well! I will get into more detail about that though below!

Information on taking the Train

Using the train to get from Malmo to Helsingor was very simple and was actually a great experience. I recommend using the train to get around if you are visiting. I am going to link to the official Rail Europe website here for you to check out. But we stayed at the Raddison Blu in Malmo and got on the train at Malmo Central Station and got off at at Köbenhavn H and got on the train to Helsingor which was about an hour and 40 minute trip one way, but definitely worth it in my opinion! It was easy to use and if there ever was any confusion, we just asked for help from someone that was working in the station and they were very helpful!

Information on Kronborg Castle!

Kronborg Castle - The Kronborg Castle has been around since 1420 and since then has burned to the ground and been rebuilt. This is the actual castle that Shakespeare set Hamlet in and has a lot of history with that in the castle. There were many ships passing into the Baltic Sea which used to pay tolls at Kronborg Castle and Helsingør but now is a tourist attraction. The Kronberg Castle is about a 10ish minute walk from the train station and we paid about $20 a person to get into it but there was a lot to see while we were in there! They had a tour you could pay for but we just did it on our own and really liked doing it that way. When you are doing the tour through the castle you have to put your backpack in a locker but they give you a key that you take with you and then give back once you’re done. We spent about 3 hours touring the castle but that includes the inside of the castle, the outside where the grounds are, spending some time in the cafe and then looking at the gift shop as well! We were absolutely happy with taking the day to make this trip.

Shopping around Helsingor - We wandered the streets of Helsingor after lunch for about two hours, there were lots of shops to go into and explore. I didn’t make a note of any specific stores but we went into a few clothings stores, a book shop, a couple of antique stores and even a little convenient shop that had a lot to look at. We all got a couple of things and then headed back to the train to beat the commuting rush back to Malmo, Sweden.

Where We Ate

Cafe Kaiser - After we spent the morning at Kronberg Castle we started to wander back to the train but decided we should stop and get a late lunch before the train ride back. We found this cute spot on the corner with outdoor seating but opted to eat inside because it looked like it was going to start raining. I had a glass of Pino noir and a really yummy sliced chicken sandwich with cucumber and sort of hummas spread. It was really good and so were the fries! There were so many options in this area to eat but if you are overwhelmed and just want to know where you’re going to have lunch this spot was great and had gluten free options that were tasty!

Gluten Free In Malmo, Sweden

Hi Friends!

As I have mentioned many times before, I like to plan ahead a little bit when it comes to where we will be eating when we are on a vacation and this is mostly just because I am so scared with my allergy of not having something to eat or causing problems with whatever group I am in or the horrible “I got glutened and my day is over” feeling. If you are traveling to Malmo, Sweden soon, don’t worry at all there were plenty of options! There are only a few places on these lists because we were traveling between Copenhagen, Helsingor and Malmo on this portion of the trip so the meals were split up between all three spots but I will share where we did eat with you guys below!

Where to Eat Gluten Free around Malmo, Sweden

MAX - We stopped here pretty much as soon as we checked into our hotel and I would say it is like their McDonalds. But here they had gluten free options and that was SO exciting! I had a bacon cheeseburger and a side of fries but I got the cheese fries that had onion and jalapeños on top. All of it was really good and we were thankful to have a quick meal to eat and we would definitely eat here again.

We did get to spend quite a bit of time in Malmo but eating out was split between a few different spots like Copenhagen and Helsingor! Like most other places on this trip, I was so happy to have found many options for gluten-free eating that were actually really tasty. Have you eaten at any of these spots or visited Sweden? Let me know if you eat at any of these spots!

Spend Two Days in Copenhagen, Denmark

Hi Friends!

Once we got off of our cruise we had 3 days in Copenhagen and Sweden and we spent one and a half of the three days in Copenhagen exploring! We had a lot of things on our list that we wanted to check out but as the day went on we sort of just let the day take us where it went and it was a lot of fun. A few things that were on our list was a canal tour, Tivoli Gardens, Amalieaborg castle and then just wandering around the iconic buildings that we have all seen in pictures! Trust me, those pictures of the colorful buildings lining the canal were spot on and it was such a pretty place to sightsee! Below I will share where we stayed, where we ate and what things we did in Copenhagen!

Where to Stay!

Raddison Blu Hotel, Malmo

When we got off of our cruise ship we stayed at the same hotel for the whole three days that we were there and it made the most sense for us to stay in Malmo, Sweden because it was a lot cheaper than staying in Copenhagen. It was really nice because we were a quick train ride from anywhere we wanted to go and we didn’t feel like we were missing out on anything by staying in Malmo! We stayed at Raddison Blu Hotel, Malmo and it was such a nice spot to stay and the location couldn’t have been better! It was nice and clean, the staff was super friendly, they had air conditioning in our rooms, comfortable beds, tea and coffee in the room and the rooms were huge!

Where to Stop!

Tivoli Gardens - This place was like the most chaotic amusement park I had ever seen haha it was really cool to walk around and look through the shops and see the different things that they had to offer but we were there on a Sunday and it seemed like everyone else was also there. I believe we each paid about $25 just to walk around the park and then if you wanted to go on rides they were a little bit more than that. It was definitely a cool thing to see in the middle of the city but I’m not sure I would pay to go in again if I were to go back!

Amalienborg Palace - We originally wanted to see the changing of the guard at the palace but we ended up doing our canal tour at the same time so we skipped it but if you can you should watch this iconic event! We could see the castle from where the canal tour started so it was perfect to see it at the same time! They also had the option to go inside and do a museum tour but we didn’t do that while we were there.

Lime Scooters - We took these Lime Scooters on a little tour around by ourselves and it was so much fun! We took the train a little bit further out from the center of the city to look for the Trash Trolls that we had heard about. When we got off the train, we saw the Lime Scooters so we downloaded the app and took them on a ride! Unfortunately we couldn’t for the lives of us find the Trash Trolls we were looking for but the scooters were so much fun it didn’t matter in the end! We probably would have had better luck with the Trash Trolls if we planned a little bit more ahead, so if you go, find them before you are without internet! If you feel comfortable on a scooter, I really recommend doing this for a little self guided tour around the city!

Original Canal Tour of Copenhagen - When we were visiting, we knew we wanted to do an iconic canal tour and we decided to go with the Original Canal Tour of Copenhagen. We liked the open boat seating and the tour guide was great! We paid like $15 a person and it was totally worth it. While we were on the boat we got to see The Copenhagen Opera House, Amalienborg Palace, Christiansborg Palace, the Black Diamond Library which was SO cool, The Little Mermaid statue and so many side alley canals with tons of house boats and tons to look at! The tour took maybe about 45 minutes if I am remembering correctly and different boats were picking people up about every half hour. I can’t recommend doing this tour enough!

Thrifting Along the Canal - We were so happy to stumble on this thrift market that was set up along the canal, there were so many things to look at and we actually have two small pieces of art in our house now from the market! A note, we could only pay with cash but there was an ATM at the 7 Eleven that was about a three minute walk away from the thrift market! I don’t know the days it is open but if they’re there when you are visiting, definitely stop!

Where to Eat

Espresso House - We stopped in here for a cup of coffee after wandering through the Tivoli Gardens and it was pretty tasty! Not much to say, it was a cute coffee shop and there were bathrooms to use which was nice! Espresso House was like a Starbucks in the states, they were everywhere and we actually stopped into a different location on another day! Like I said, good coffee and a good place to stop in and relax for a bit.

Wagamama - We ate here when we were in Tivoli Gardens for lunch and it wasn’t our first option but we were all starving and I knew I could eat here so we just settled and had lunch! They were very knowledgeable about allergies and the manager was the person who came to take my order. I got the Pad Thai with chicken and it was pretty good! Not a 10/10 but if it had a little bit more sauce it would have been much better! Dustin got some kind of ramen and liked it a lot! I would eat here again, especially because of how well they took care of allergies.

With only spending about a day and a half in Copenhagen, as you can tell we were able to fit so many things in and see so much! If we had a little bit more time we probably would have ventured out and did some things outside of the city. But that just means we need to visit again for a longer amount of time!
